The Story of a Professional Boxer Knocked Down by Mental Health and Silly Investments, but Got Up Recovering His Wealth and Impact.

Amir King Khan is a British former professional boxer with impressive results. Khan first made his mark on the Olympic scene, with a silver medal in Athens 2004. He held the world junior welterweight title from 2009 to 2011. In addition to being a world champion, Khan held the WBC Silver welterweight title from 2014 to 2016. His boxing record stands at 34-6 with 21 KOs.

Amir Khan has earned more than $80 million over his boxing career and has a net worth of $40 million.

But in 2016 his recklessness with money, long-term injury, coupled with his failed investments led to serious mental health struggles. By this time he lost $6 million. Luckily his wife Faryal Makh reshuffled their finances. She became a key figure to preventing mistakes in financial management similar in business after setting up bar shisha, restaurant, and coffee shop.

He is also the owner of Khan Promotions and Pakistan's Amir Khan Academy and a co-owner of India's Super Fight League (MMA) and Super Boxing League.

Amir Khan has a history of supporting charities and being involved in communities. In 2004, he helped raise money for victims of the Indian Ocean tsunami, and the following year visited Pakistan to provide food after the Kashmir earthquake. His own charity organization - Amir Khan Foundation - has taken on a number of projects including the Water Wells project to provide wells in drought-stricken areas of Asia and Africa, the Gambia orphanage, and the Orphan AID project to provide aid for Syrian refugees in Greece.
